Just your average grocery getters... an Acura MDX and a BMW suv.

Guy doesn't look too happy to be there. Probably because he had to drive the crappy car.

When I opened it I thought maybe you spotted me again picking up sick kids from daycare... but minivan is life at this point. 

He is definitely upset because he wasn't supposed to have to get the kid today.

In person, the gaudiness is awesome.

Fiero with a body kit? (That was for JG's amusement.)

Seriously, though, always gotta give props for someone doing the daily grind in something special.

Retired sports-ball player?  

If I could afford to buy a new Bugatti, then I could afford to not worry about using it to drive the kid to kindergarten.

I agree.  It could be much worse.  This almost has a John Player Special vibe to it.

He's taking in the kid because his wife fired the au'pair (third one this year) after finding her and him in the downstairs kitchen walk-in pantry playing "hide the free-range non-GMO locally sourced grain fed kielbasa"...again. He already listed the car in the Robb Report because his lawyer Monty "Three Fingers" Fontaine has to be paid up front for divorce cases, and this will be a nasty one. This is the last day he gets to drive the car before the consignment shop picks it up so he better not scratch it.

Man, there's gonna be some expensive Cheerios in those seats.

I'd make sure to give the kid a big peanut butter and jelly sandwich first before pick-up, you know the kind where the kid wants to take it home to finish it.  Sticky finger prints on everything.

Or stomping in mud puddles on the way to the car, because kids are kids.

I was OK with the exterior. Gold wheels and trim? OK. 

The interior is hideous. 

The dude is pissed because he farted and stained the white seats or his kid dropped his sippy cup of grape juice.

On the one hand, good for him using a Bugatti for daily duty. On the other, if you can afford a Bugatti, you can afford much better schools than the average worker, and should be using them.

He could just be irritated that he had to drive that for daily duties, and now people know he has $$$$.

Having never seen a Bugatti in person, I think the fact that this guy drives to daily errands in it is super awesome. Say what you want about rich people and needless spending, but I know when I see a super rare car out on the streets it makes my day better :)

Maybe he looks like that cause its the morning and kids can be a PITA on some mornings. I like what's done to the car, though. $3.2mil sheeesh. If I could afford that car I would take my kids to school in it too. Simply because it would put a huge smile on both of our face.

Whew won't touch on most of the comments here.

He's probably pissed that he had to drive the Bugatti to pick up his kid instead of something more lowkey like a G Wagon and is now getting more attention than he wanted. I dig the plate.

Maybe he's just irritated that he cant even pick up his kid at school without some rando going paparazzi on him. Maybe he's not unhappy at all and the camera caught him at an awkward moment. Maybe that's his happy face.

I'm just glad to see it getting used for more than cars/coffee hard parking and making bro-ey YouTube/TikTok videos.
